Hello everyone and welcome to Police Off the Cuff, Real Crime Stories.

I'm your host, retired NYPD Sergeant Bill Cannon, a 27-year veteran of the NYPD.

You know, a story today of Nick Boliah, and the name, of course, does not sound familiar

unless you also match it up to Terry Beliyer.

And that doesn't sound familiar unless you match it up to this individual on the screen.

Hulk Hogan.

Hulk Hogan, his real name is Terry Beliah and his son Nick Beliah.

He is the subject of the story today because it's not that Nick was arrested in November

to driving under the influence, driving while intoxicated.

They use different alphabet letters for it in different jurisdictions, driving under the influence, driving while intoxicated. But 16 years ago,

Nick Balaia, Nick Hogan, if you want to call him Nick Hogan, was involved in an extremely egregious accident where a friend of his by the name of John Graziano was very seriously injured.

In fact, to this day, he is paralyzed.

And it involved drag racing and involved some alcohol.

It also involved Nick Balea being sentenced to some time in jail over that accident that occurred 16 years ago.

So do people learn their lessons and things like this?

When something of this nature occurs, shouldn't you learn your lesson,

or is it just something that you don't take seriously? You know, it's not to be trifled with.

But this is a serious situation. And maybe because Nick Balaia is Hulk Hogan's son is perhaps one of the only reasons that this case is getting attention whatsoever.

Otherwise, I don't think many people would necessarily care about it.

I mean, driving while impaired, driving well intoxicated,

is sort of a common crime that's common in every place in this world, probably.

And you hear the old euphemisms.
